Paid au$5.00 for what I beleive to be a Star lubesizer in used and dirty condition,fitted with a modified lee sizing die. (ps one aussie is .65cents usd).
Now to clean it.If servicable I may be looking for dies,which I beleive to be the dearest of all lube sizer dies.

Some people DO have all the luck. You might hold the record for the "best deal of all time".

Went back to see what was left of the clean out and came away with a swage setup to make .22 and .243 projectiles for au$150,plus modified press for swageing.Now to clean all the gear and work out how they work.

Heck of a deal! Cheap sizing dies, excellent quality from Lathesmith on
this site. I am not associated, never even met the man face to face but
he made me a very highly polished Star die for a low price $22US IIRC.

Hi Folks,have cleaned the star and filled with lube and it works,way different to a rcbs.But it works with the die that came with it.Now to build a stand with a boolit catch tray.And maybe find more sizing dies one day.
